| I wasn't aware of a WINE port to OSX. Thought that was a Linux only thing. But seriously it works faster through a Windows emulator than as a native OSX app? Something is wrong with OSX there. Can Windows be speed up by running it through WINE instead? LOL.  |

So they say. But the purpose of WINE is to emulate the Windows API. Or simulate if the WINE creators don't like the emulate word and have a hangover at the very mention of it.  |

| WINE is an implementation of the Windows API, not emulation nor simulation.
That said, using WINE on a Mac is pretty awkward, I would prefer a simpler AmiKit that would just launch from FS-UAE. Last edited by kolla on 13-Aug-2018 at 11:11 PM.

| Last I tried, it gurued (with non-obvious guru #) with FS-UAE, and went into an endless reboot cycle, despite setting up a pretty much identical target profile as that in WinUAE. I was not motivated enough to debug what the cause was.

It seems you just confirmed what the news text said about WinUAE - that it is more stable & compatible than any other solution
